<a-.> behavior with t

vimeitor opened this issue · 4 comments

Hi,
Repeatedly pressing <a-.> after pressing t should keep jumping to the next match instead of getting stuck at the first one. I don't find this behavior very practical, but I just started playing around with kakoune, so I might be missing a better way.

I dont think thats <a-.> specific, current t behaviour will get stuck on the next instance of the given letter, which I agree is not the most practical. t could be changed to ignore the char immediatly after the cursor.

Isn't that going to be annoying when scripting?

Here's an idea: <a-.> shouldn't record that the last key was t, but instead store f which doesn't have this problem.
